[Nook Color General] robedney:
Sorry -- this is probably a silly question but I can't find the answer anywhere.

I need to do a full factory reset. When I do the 8 boot failure option, however, on the 9th boot it goes into clockwork recovery -- where I do a delete user data and factory reset (from the Clockwork menu). Once I reboot (and have to register again to get past the B&N process) I'm still rooted -- or at least I still have Superuser on the Extras menu.

I'm thinking I somehow need to get past Clockwork to do a true reset????
[Nook Color General] pieceofplastic:
I'm also trying to do this, and having the same problems.
[Nook Color General] jjswee:
I used adb to set the 8 boot failure and got the boot failure screen as well. I followed the method from the 'restore to stock' thread (which you probably should have posted in, instead of making a new thread) and used the hardware buttons to wipe the rest. I also had some apps left like SU left over. Also I was on 1.0.1 which I manually put on (when I had a booting loop into clockwork (my own fault)). My NC came with 1.1.0, so the restore to stock didn't bring me back to what I bought the nook as.
[Nook Color General] Andrmgic:
That 9th boot attempt is supposed to re-image the system partition... having CWR installed on the internal memory must be interfering with that process..

If you want to go back to stock without root files or anything.. try the following -

*NOTE* You must use CWR 3.0.0.5.. 3.0.0.6 will format the partitions as EXT 4, which the stock OS and kernel do not support.

Here are the steps -

1. Download CWR for SD card .7 from this thread - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=922870 (choose a size appropriate for your sd card)

2. Download Nook Restore 1.01 from this thread - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=914690

3. Image CWR onto a sd card using WinImage if you're in windows or dd if you're using a mac or linux (In WinImage, you'd go to disk>restore virtual hard drive to physical) give it your sd card reader's drive letter and choose the image you downloaded in step 1)

4. Copy Nook Restore 1.01 from step 2 onto this SD card and eject it from your PC

5. Power off the Nook Color and insert the sd card into the slot

6. Power on the Nook Color and boot into CWR

7. Go to Mounts and Storage

8. Format System and Data

9. Go back to "Install Zip from SD Card on the previous menu by pressing the power button

10. Select "Install Zip from SD Card" and then "Choose Zip from SD Card" * If you get an error, you need to go back to mounts and storage and mount the sdcard*

11. Choose Nook Restore 1.01 and wait for the installation to complete

12. Go back to the main menu and choose wipe cache

13. Power off the Nook Color

14. Remove the SD card

15. Power on the Nook color

The nook should boot into the stock OS and ask you to go through the initial setup process again.

Hope this helps.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bitnerd:
Hi. I have a device, a Nook Color, that doesn't have a built in gps. I've seen applications that would allow an android phone to connect to a gps that's available via a bluetooth serial connection. What I would like to do is create a gps device on the nook that connects over a wireless network to a gps program (something like gpsd) and emulates all the behaviors needed for things like google maps.

Is this possible or does the gps these programs looking for have to be a hardware device?

Can someone give me an idea where to start? I do programming and device integration all the time but don't have a lot a familiarity with the internals of the android OS

Thanks

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrvirginia:
i'm running a Gingerbread build based off of the latest nightly with stock kernel.

i've formatted my device with the formatall.zip and reloaded the ROM. i've even gone back to a stock ROM and still got the same issue. after doing this, if i plug my device up, it charges just fine while on. if i unplug the device later and plug it back up, the charging light will come on, then quickly go off and the device won't charge.

the only way i've been able to get around this is to turn it off, in which case it then charges. i get these same results whether i'm plugged into the wall or to PC.

if it were a hardware issue, wouldn't that mean it wouldn't charge at all, whether on or off?

anyone have any ideas or experience with this issue?

Anyone found solution yet?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheSilverStig:
My only guess would be a kernel issue or a hardware problem. Wipe your dalvik and cache and reflash your kernel. If that doesn't fix it, I do know some evo's micro usb ports go bad. I don't know if this is a symptom of that but it may be.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BLuff.Master:

HELP evo only charges turned off

I have a problem.. my evo only charges when turned off. sometimes the charging light will come on when it is on but the settings say its discharging.. also i reinstalled a driver once and it started charging fine until i unpluged it from the computer now back to not charging.. this is very frustrating.. it not the port or the cable or the charger.. is there a way to force it to charge with android terminal emulator maybe??
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gab1to:
This is not another how to backup apps question...

It's just that I have a friend that has an EVO and he, as I do regularly, flash different roms almost every time. The thing is that everytime he flashes a new rom, the marketplace automatically starts downloading the apps.

I've tried everything to get the same results but nothing works on my Vibrant. I've google everywhere and I can't find and answer about why does the Evo does that and not all the Android phones.

It's this phone specific? I mean, all Evo's have this feature but I haven't seen a Samsung Galaxy S with that feature.

Am I missing something. I hate having to restore apps with titanium backup everytime.

What about those apps that cost $ and suddenly they are free on the Android market? Will I get back those apps from the Android Market even if the app it's not free anymore?

I'll really appreciate a response because this is driving me crazy. Don't know why Google doesn't specify this features...

Before you flash do you wipe/factory reset. That's is a possible fix to your problem if it does not work post again.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xriderx66:
bro, its not cool to copy a post.

@OP

I haven't heard of anything that does this, titanium backup is fine though, i mean what your saying is exactly what titanium backup does.

most roms come with titanium backup..

so all you do is:

press menu

press batch

press restore backedup apps

press run or start w/e

that takes like 10 seconds.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Product F(RED):
Evo user here. This doesn't happen on Sense ROMs. Only works with stock Google ones like CyanogenMod because the setup screen that comes up on first boot will allow you to tick a box that will Backup and Restore your apps automatically (not the data, just the apps).
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gab1to:
That's exactly what I don't want. With titanium, if you have like 40 apps, you have to install each one of them and it takes quite a lot time unless you have the paid version.

Exactly that's why I want to know why we (Vibrant users) can't have the same feature :S
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gab1to:
BUMP, seems no one can answer that question...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xriderx66:
probably because this feature is phone-specific. to EVOS only.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gmillerguy:
I thought this might be an HTC feature since it worked on every 2.2+ HTC phone, but it more like a Samsung deficiency. I think that the market is supposed to do backups and restores in Vanilla android, hence the check box that you check for this when setting up your account. I think it just doesn't work in touch wiz based phones (both my Vibrant & Captivate don't do it). Cyanogen Mod on my friend's mytouch (2.3.3 android) does do it.

[Streak 5 General] fastwanabe:
So after 10+ plus calls to att for the unlock code and them telling me "not found" then getting an email asking for faxes for this faxes for that I bit the bullet. I purchased the rebelsim unlock reader and to my surprise and 20 minutes in "seeing permissions" it came back with the unlock code. Threw my simple mobile SIM card in there and viola I got service. I did a ton of research but not much info is available...not even reviews for that matter. just letting you guys know.

Where'd you buy your streak from? I got 2 at best buy (bricked one and swapped for another), called at&t and got code 5 minutes later. This was back late dec/early jan.
[Streak 5 General] fastwanabe:
I bought it from a guy on craigslist and he says he got it from best buy. The att reps all confirmed that it was an att phone but told me that the unlock code was not found. They all filed out a case and gave me the case number. Two to three days later I would get the same email requesting I fax in proof of purchase. I originally thought maybe the phone was stolen but att reps assured me that...that was not the case. So I went this route.

[General Topics] lude219:
too much wasted real estate on your design.

Use the HD2 as a starting point and improve from there.
[General Topics] lude219:
Your concept 2/HD3 one is what I'm talking about. Very industrial and sleek. Though for the capacitive keys at the bottom, I think a better design would to get rid of the bottom row, and instead, incorporate a hardware button on the side to toggle the onscreen/virtual buttons (menu, search, back, etc). Of course, having a realistic design is one thing, but for a concept, I think the future will do away with front buttons for a more cleaner look and thus having an effective full size screen from corner to corner with 3-4mm of bezel in between. I mean, looking back 5 years, you have hard keys gradually evolving into soft keys and it's only a natural evolution to have no keys at all. Virtual keys would be the new thing.
[General Topics] lude219:
exactly! Though I know it's not for everyone, but if the intention of the idea/concept is to create a high-end smartphone for the future, everything has to be big, sleek and seamless. For instance, god forbid if I say this, but the iphone4 is heading toward that direction. You have a phone that doesn't have odd buldge from the camera or a hump in the back for the gps and whatnot and it's just a wonderful design sans the screen size. Rumor has it that Apple might be getting rid of the round button at the bottom and will probably utilize some sort of switch on the side to toggle the onscreen buttons/menus.
[General Topics] Step666:
That's something I've pondered about from time to time, except I envisaged a secondary layer to the screen using some form of transparent LCD/OLED tech that the function buttons would appear on, so that they were completely disconnected from the main screen and would still function if, say, an app had frozen, in the way that proper buttons continue to work even if what's happening on screen has started to mess up.

There'd still need to be some hardware buttons other than the power button though, otherwise how would we boot into recover/bootloader etc?

Well, in that case, can't we do one better than Apple?

Especially if it's just going to be a concept...

Imagine a phone with completely rounded-off edges, kinda like two iPhone 3GSs placed screen-to-screen, only thinner of course.

You could have the screen cover the entire front half of the phone, including the front of the the curved areas. That'd be truly seamless.

Of course, that's just if you're limiting yourself to a semi-conventional design.

Given the potential advances in flexible displays in the next couple of years as well as recent breakthroughs in creating flexible circuitry, future smartphones could be very different indeed...
[General Topics] tolis626:
Well,I for one would like to see two high-quality stereo speakers,probably on top and bottom.That would be a true multimedia phone for me. :)

One more thing,to help out the gamers,would be something like a small,thin slide-out glass touch sensitive pad,on which the necessary buttons would appear for each game(like joysticks).

What I thought of many times would be the potential of a carbon-fibre-body phone.That,along with a scratch resistant glass(like gorilla glass) would finally make the phone much more sturdy and light.Although I don't know how it would fare with heat...

A nice addition would be a small "air pipe" that would go from top to bottom,with some special membrane that will let air go in and out but not water etc.That would help with the aformentioned heat problems! ;)

Also,if it's not too much,a small projector on the back would be super cool.Although I don't quite place that in the mandatory section. :)

Other than that,the latest,most powerful hardware would suffice!Along with some new-technology battery to power the whole thing of course! ;)

Maybe I'll come back with more,that's just a tiring days rant! ;)

What I'd love is a dual-core landscape QWERTY. With a 4.3" high-res screen(SAMOLED+ etc) with a nice 5 row keyboard (nicely risen and spaced) with numbers on the top row, with a strong hinge. To be thin and light too. Have the screen cover most of the phone, so not a huge phone. Xenon flash with a nice camera, with good sensor too.

Fuel cell battery? or any bigger battery. I'd rather have a thicker phone with more battery life than a thin phone with standard battery life.

Wireless charging, NFC.

Thunderbolt I/O Integration with faster onboard NAND? (SD cards and generally transferring anything over USB is horridly slow atm.)

HDMI out via a dock or a port on the phone? (I'm sure a dual core cpu would be able to handle 1080p)
